"Directive 2004/38/EC ...
Migrant workers’ right to reside for more than three months remains subject to certain conditions, which vary depending on the citizen’s status: for EU citizens who are not workers or self-employed, the right of residence depends on their having sufficient resources not to become a burden on the host Member State’s social assistance system, and having sickness insurance. EU citizens acquire the right of permanent residence in the host Member State after a period of five years of uninterrupted legal residence."
Why on earth did we not insist on this since it would have prevented all the low-waged from staying?
Anyone who takes from the state in disqualified (e.g. tax credit) + they need to have private health insurance.
The get out clause is provided by the EU itself, FFS.
